It's good to see you corresponding sensibly with Pooh, Dustin, and not 
simply allowing him to 'wind you up'! We Brits are quite good at doing 
that - it's a form of amusement for many of us. [g]

However, HE needs to recognize that you *DO* have skills gained from 
learning 'on the job', as it were, since you were a very young boy. As 
you know, I watched it happen personally with one of my sons.

In turn, it might be good for you to recognize that *HE* may have many 
skills too, albeit gained from a formal education. Pooh might just tell 
you a little more about how HE learned to protect corporate clients from 
the activities of the folk you refer to as Vxers. You don't HAVE to 
fight with one another!
